Miao Liang and Zhai Yaohui Thirty-three
"I have to take care of my mother now. Your going back will be the greatest help to me."
"..."
"..."
Qi Minlan and Grandma Zhai were both a little dumbfounded. Grandma Zhai didn't expect Zhai Yaohui to say something so hurtful, while Qi Minlan didn't expect that Zhai Yaohui had never let her take care of the family before. It was not because he felt sorry for her and would be tired taking care of Grandma Zhai, but because he never wanted her to take care of the family at all. He treated her as an outsider and now he wanted to drive her away!
Qi Minlan's face turned pale: "Brother Zhai, what did you just say? I, I didn't understand. Did I misunderstand?"
Impossible, it can't be like this.
If Zhai Yaohui had this attitude towards her, how could he have driven the little country girl out of the Zhai family even though he knew that Chief Zhai liked that little country girl so much?
Didn't Zhai Yaohui do this for her?
Moreover, it couldn't be that she was thinking too much.
Otherwise, the little country girl was not driven away for such a long time in the past year, so why did she have to move out of the Zhai family this time when Zhai Yaohui came back? This explanation didn't make sense.
Zhai Yaohui: "I'm not sure if there is any misunderstanding now, but I know there must have been a misunderstanding before. Qi Minlan, you should go back. Although you and I are not alone in the same room, it is inevitable that people will misunderstand us. If you and your boyfriend quarrel, it will not be good. We grew up together, and I am your brother. If you get married and someone bullies you, you can come to me and I will help you."
"Brother? Boyfriend?" Hearing these two words, Qi Minlan felt dizzy, and the world in front of her eyes seemed to be spinning, making her almost unable to stand. "Brother Zhai, what do you mean by that? When did I have a boyfriend?"
Thinking of this, Qi Minlan immediately explained: "I do have some male friends, but my boyfriend is only, only..." You!
Qi Minlan is a smart person. During the ten years, the status of the Zhai family only seemed to be a little shaky, but it didn't collapse.
Therefore, Qi Minlan would not cut off her own retreat, do things thoroughly, and completely separate herself from Zhai Yaohui.
Even if there were other boys around him, Qi Minlan kept a proper distance from these boys and would not let herself fall completely.
In fact, everyone is a good friend, and no man has the ability to be called Qi Minlan's boyfriend.
So, in front of Zhai Yaohui, Qi Minlan answered this question very quickly.
But sometimes, the faster you answer, the more guilty you seem.
It was the shy 1970s. Unless a man and a woman were getting married and preparing some wedding items, men and women rarely went out together, let alone holding hands. If their hands accidentally touched, they would blush.
Many times, when a man liked a woman, he didn't dare to look at the girl openly, but asked someone to go to her house to ask her.
In such a youthful era, even if it is a new society, the new society emphasizes equality between men and women, but when lesbians get close to gay men, they are not in a relationship. It is okay for men, but it is easy for women to be misunderstood as improper people.
If it were not for the good conditions of the Shi family and Zhai Yaohui being so outstanding,
otherwise, those ugly rumors about Qi Minlan would have been flying everywhere.
Zhai Yaohui, such an outstanding and proud man, does not mind that his fiancée Qi Minlan has so many male friends. As a bystander, of course, it is not easy to say too much.
After all, the custom in China is to rather demolish ten temples than destroy a marriage, right?
Perhaps influenced by this environment, Qi Minlan comforted herself like this and really took it as reality - she had never done anything to let down Zhai Yaohui.
She was with those male friends, just discussing some activities normally. There was only one male who had an intimate relationship with her, and that was her fiancé Zhai Yaohui.
Qi Minlan had already set this hypothesis very perfectly. Who knew that at this time, Zhai Yaohui wanted to wake Qi Minlan up and said that all the previous things were misunderstandings.
What were those things in the past?
Of course, it was about the two of them being an engaged couple!
Zhai Yaohui made it so clear that the strong-willed Qi Minlan could no longer deceive himself: "Brother Zhai, you also said that we grew up together. If you have anything to say, just say it directly. It's so unclear that I'm tired of guessing. What do you mean?"
Zhai Yaohui: "I know that you and the Shi family have always said to the outside world that we are an engaged couple. You should know that the two families have not officially explained or held any ceremony or banquet about this matter. You are just a sister to me, just like my own sister." He has
no love for Qi Minlan at all. He
didn't think so before, but recently Zhai Yaohui found that he could no longer accept the days with Qi Minlan. Just thinking about it made him feel uncomfortable.
Zhai Yaohui is not the kind of person who will force himself. When he doesn't feel something, he will remain silent.
Now he has figured it out. Zhai Yaohui certainly wants to make things clear between him and Qi Minlan, without any ambiguity.
"Dear sister?" Even though Qi Minlan already had a hunch, she still felt particularly absurd when she heard these three words.
Dear sister?
Who are you kidding!
Who would hear someone say that he and his sister are engaged and have no reaction at all, with a tacit attitude?
So, is Zhai Yaohui trying to fool her, or someone else, or himself?
Qi Minlan, who was about to explode on the spot, pinched herself to control herself from exploding.
She didn't understand that she listened to her father's words to gain Aunt Zhai's favor, and finally got Aunt Zhai's approval early. Aunt Zhai urged Zhai Yaohui to settle the matter between the two of them, so that she could officially become the daughter-in-law of the Zhai family.
Why hasn't she started working on Aunt Zhai yet, but she was slapped to death by Zhai Yaohui's words and had nothing to do?
After all, Zhai Yaohui's attitude towards her suddenly became so firm, there was no room for negotiation at all, and the unmarried couple turned into brothers and sisters, and it wasn't because of that vixen from the countryside.
When Miao Liang left, Qi Minlan happily thought she had won.
When Miao Liang left, Qi Minlan happened to meet him, and Miao Liang said some blessings. Qi Minlan also felt that he had won at that time, and stepped on Miao Liang's face.
